Madurai is one of South India’s great temple towns and is synonymous with the celebrated Minakshi Temple. As early as the 3rd century BC, Megasthanes visited Madurai. Some 2,000 years ago it hosted the famous Sangams (gathering of writers and poets), which were to provide Tamil literature with some of its most enduring works. Later many people from Rome and Greece visited Madurai and established trade with the Pandya kings. From the 7th to 13th centuries, as the capital of the Pandyas, it saw art and trade flourish. Madurai flourished till 10th century AD when it was captured by Cholas the arch rivals of the Pandyas. It later became part of the Vijayanagar Empire and in the 16th – 17th centuries it was capital of Nayaka. Madurai is surrounded by several mountains.
